Was £129.97 called up and states the price is £69.97 and they will refund £60 after I have ordered if call up. This is down to a website clich but it is £69.97!!

The Vax Rapide Classic carpet washer has a 3.5L clean water capacity and a 2L dirty water capacity. The powerful motor helps carpets to dry quickly while the static brushbar gently agitates carpet fibres to loosen and lift dirt and stains. The handle lays flat for easy cleaning under and around furniture. The Vax Rapide Classic carpet washer is easy to fill, empty, use and store.

I have one of these. Such a pain to use, even more of a pain to clean. Heavy, leaks if you're a bit careless (like me!) with the hoses. I've used it 3 times and now it sits under my stairs...

Bought one of these around 3 years ago for £80. Used a few times but wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Far better off hiring a half decent unit on a weekend deal from a supermarket/diy store. Cheaper if you and neighbors/friends/relatives can share the cost and get a few carpets done at once.

I usually put mine in the bath, but just running one of these over them while they lie on the floor playing on the DS sounds much simpler. If they keep their clothes on I won't need the washing machine either. Thanks for the tip.
